Meet Jacob

If we’ve said it once, we’ve said it twice…and maybe three or four times at that! We are on a roll hiring exceptional people! (Not to toot our own horn or anything!) Add Jacob to that mix of great additions to our team!

Jacob is a Kentucky native. He is from Lexington but currently lives in Northern Kentucky. He attended the University of Kentucky and is a die-hard Wildcat fan. 

He joined our team with about a year of experience in the industry, but a year is all he’s needed to pick up on all the ins and outs of logistics. He has a background in freight brokering and coordinating various aspects of logistics. Jacob is one of our newest logistics coordinators!

Even in a short time, Jacob has proven to be an asset to our team. He takes great pride in his determined work ethic, professional communication, attention to detail, interpersonal relationship building, and being a life-long learner. 

“Working at PGT is enjoyable because of the opportunity to solve problems as a close-knit team and to help others,” Jacob shared. “It is a fast-paced working environment where others are going to support you and help you become better!”

In his free time, Jacob loves being outdoors doing almost anything- running, hiking, climbing, you name it- and cooking! 

Fun Facts: Jacob has completed three half marathons, a triathlon, hiked the Swiss Alps, and has visited 13 National Parks and counting! (We weren’t kidding with the title of this blog!)

We are thrilled to have Jacob on our team and look forward to his ongoing contributions!
